    Randy Oliver is definitely a rockstar of the beekeeping world. I just don't like the lags in the audio. I feel like I'm missing some key PC's of information. Another question I have is why don't we test drones for mites at all times, or at least whenever they are available? Or maybe we should be taking any number we get from a regular wash and multiply it by 7 since they are on the drones more frequently by 7x

    Hi everyone. What would be European analogue to Dawn detergent? We don't have it here in Europe 😔.

    45:41 what ration of the Dawn Ultra detergent to the water is used for mite count test? Is it same as "Dawn Ultra Dishwashing Liquid, Dish Soap"?

    Hey randy, I'm a small commercial queen breeder, I've experimented with try to breed vsh bees from a company in texas. No luck in reproducing bees that effectively handle mites. Do you know where I can find starter colonies or queens to start with.
